Point of View: Crunch Time

Crunch Time

Too many things to get done, and not enough time to do them. Every writer runs into this problem eventually, assuming that they stick with their craft long enough. You see, the average writer whose name is not Stephen King or Piers Anthony works at least one other job to support their habit – in my case it’s one and a half. Or maybe one and a half, and a half. My husband Mark and I run a web design and directory business, which consumes upwards of 70 hours a week. We’re also part of an Italian study group, of … Read more

Two Great Reviews for Myths Untold: Faery

Hearts on Fire

Just in – Two new reviews of “Myths Untold: Faery”.

I’d say The Pwcca and the Persian Boy and The Changeling are my favorite stories from this collection, they both had an element of mystery and new adventures to them that appealed to me and I really wanted to keep going with both … Read more

Doesn’t know why the marbles he makes flutter with magic. All he thinks is that he’s crazy. That he sees things others don’t, like dragons and strange markings on his skin. But when a dark dragon snatches away Rye’s only friend Milo, he is forced to face the crazy in his life and figure … Read more

Point of View: Running a Successful Contest

Scott

Hey all, We’re closing out the Queer Sci Fi Flash Fiction contest, and we’re about to get to the fun part – reading all the great entries that were submitted by y’all. We have 166 in all, from a great variety of writers and covering the LGBTIQA spectrum and the full gamut of speculative fiction themes. Well, I assume they do. You see, I haven’t actually read any of them yet. I am very careful not to do so before we start the judging, as I am compiling the file. We judge these stories blind – without knowing the author … Read more
